And just as drivers of regular motor vehicles can become distracted by a number of factors, school bus drivers have also come into the spotlight in regards to the accuracy and safety of their driving. New York's laws on driving safety help protect children from potential accidents, but the laws are continuously changing to best address the issue of distracted bus driving.

Unfortunately, a new survey may have just given you yet another thing to worry about, if you hadn't already: teenage driving safety.

Do you or someone you love work in the construction industry in New York? If so, you know that it only takes a brief moment for something to go wrong on a construction job site that may have extremely serious if not deadly repercussions.
